Carson biked with me, the speaker was going, and I felt great!
The bugs weren't even that annoying, probably because of all of the spider webs that we ran through on the way out. The canal path was beautiful, as usual, and the footing was all either crushed limestone, dirt, or grass. Gel at mile 13. I didn't realize that I was only 22 seconds short of 2 hours or I absolutely would have gone those last 20 seconds. Also, s/o to Clare for mentioning the song "Woman" a while ago, because that was my power jam for the last 1/2 mile.
Hips are definitely sore, and we all know that they don't lie.
